Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Are the shelves in the Nunc Cryobank and Bank-It Freezer Rack (Cat. No. 367014) adjustable?

Yes, they are adjustable.

What are the main advantages of the Thermo Scientific 2D barcoded storage system?

Here are some advantages of the 2D barcoded storage system:
- Less time needed for labeling, sample recording, and retrieval
- Maximize freezer utilization while keeping storage space organised
- Ensures a safe, permanent ID of a sample
- Enables multivial capping and multichannel filling
- Individualized samples, eliminating multiple freeze/thaw cycles

Why do you recommend Nunc Cryobank vials for liquid nitrogen storage and the Matrix ScrewTop storage tubes for storage at higher temperatures?

We recommend using Nunc Cryobank vials for liquid nitrogen storage as these vials are designed for use at ultra-low temperatures. They come without a lid so that they can be easily picked from the rack at ultra-low temperatures using a tube selection or pen tool.
On the other hand, we recommend Matrix ScrewTop storage tubes for use at higher temperatures (-80 degrees C and above). They work well for both manual and automated picking.

Which Thermo Scientific 2D barcoded storage tubes should I use for my application?

Please view the following information regarding the usage of Thermo Scientific 2D barcoded storage tubes:
Tube Type; Typical Storage Temperature; Application(s); Special Feature(s)
Sepraseal; -20 degrees C; Compound storage; Can easily be removed for sample access
Presplit Sepraseal; -20 degrees C; Compound storage; Up to 200 piercings
Duraseal; -20 degrees; Compound storage; Safe seal for multiple piercings
Matrix ScrewTop; -80 degrees C; Blood components, DNA, Bacteria; With the correct torque, there is very little evaporation at -80 C, disposable pipette tips can be used
Nunc Screwcap; -176 degrees C; Mammalian cells; Minimal height, tubes can be removed with cryo gloves
